Overview

Rice Park, a public square since 1849, serves as an outlet for anyone who needs to relax or downtown workers who just want to eat lunch away from their desks. Make a wish in the giant fountain that dominates one corner of the park. Faced by the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts, the main St. Paul Public Library, Landmark Center, and the St. Paul Hotel, the park is a peaceful, shady haven. Free concerts held in the summer are a joy to all. Winter brings the ice sculptures carved for the St. Paul Winter Carnival; you can watch the carvers in action and enjoy them afterward.

I work near there & will often walt to the park on my lunch hour. It provides peace in the hubbub of the city and it entertains many events to keep you busy all year! DO NOT miss the ice sculptures in January. They are truly amazing.

There are some adorable sculptures in the park. The Peanuts characters were very well done. We had a great time eating lunch and people watching. A lot is going on around there!
